Ronald Henry Ward (1 December 1915 – 1 August 2000) was a New Zealand rugby union player. A flanker, Clark represented Southland, Hawke's Bay and, briefly, Canterbury at a provincial level. He was a member of the New Zealand national side, the All Blacks, in 1936 and 1937, playing four matches for the team including three internationals. Ward's playing career was effectively truncated by World War II, but between 1957 and 1961 he was coach and selector of the Southland team.^[1]
